appointed in him. He said he loved her, how should she respondIf she responded, she'd be apologizing to the child. But if she didn't, she'd be letting down her own feelings. What should she doThe more...Thinking about this, Fu Xiaoyao couldn't wait any longer. She turned off the kitchen light and hurried upstairs to find Lu Hanchuan's study.
Coming to Lü Hánchuan's study door, she couldn't knock, so she could only shout inside, "Hánchuan."
Lu Hanchuan heard her voice, his languid eyes suddenly opened, and he looked at the time in the lower right corner of his computer. Seeing that it was already 1 a.m., his brows furrowed involuntarily, "Come in."
Fu Xiaoyao carefully placed the tray on the ground and then reached out to open the door.
After the door opened, she bent down and picked up the tray, walking into his study.
"Are you hungry" Fu Xiaoyao asked with a smile.
Lu Hanchuan glanced at the tray she was holding, his eyebrows raised slightly, "Noodles"
"Yeah." Fu Xiaoyao nodded.
Lu Hanchuan pursed his thin lips, "So you stayed up this late instead of sleeping just to do this"
"Well, my stomach is a bit hungry, so I went downstairs to get something to eat. I also cooked you a bowl, eat it." Fu Xiaoyao placed the tray on his desk and then pushed a bowl of noodles towards him, looking at him expectantly.
Lu Hanchuan did feel a bit hungry, so he didn't refuse. He picked up the chopsticks she handed him and put a little bit of noodles in his mouth.
"How is it" Fu Xiaoyao asked nervously after seeing the man eat.
Lu Hanchuan raised his eyelids and glanced at her, "Not bad."
"Is that so" Fu Xiaoyao wasn't very pleased with this answer.
She put so much effort into making that bowl of noodles, and it got this kind of review
Lu Hanchuan sensed Fu Xiaoyao's dejection and gently put down his chopsticks. "To make a whole bowl of noodles inedible should be quite difficult, right"
"Huh" Fu Xiaoyao was taken aback at first, not quite understanding. However, after a few seconds, she realized what it meant and a smile slowly spread across her face.
She knew that what he meant by that was that it tasted good.
But he couldn't just say it plainly, why beat around the bush
"Hanchuan, how much longer will you be busy" Fu Xiaoyao pulled a chair over and sat beside him, then picked up another pair of chopsticks and began eating from the other bowl of noodles.
Lu Hanchuan took a sip of noodle soup, "It'll be a while longer, you can finish eating and go back to rest."
"I'll stay with you." Fu Xiaoyao said firmly.
Lu Hanchuan looked at her in surprise. "Aren't you going to sleep"
"If I can't sleep, let me stay here with you. And besides, I want to experience what it's like to work with you." Fu Xiaoyao looked into his eyes, a glimmer of hope in her gaze.
Lu Hanchuan chuckled softly, "Then do as you please. If you can't hold on later, just come back to the room."
"Mhm." Fu Xiaoyao nodded repeatedly.
Lu Hanzhan stopped talking and quietly continued eating his noodles, bowing his head.
Seeing this, Fu Xiaoyao also closed her mouth and stopped talking.
For a moment, the vast study was eerily silent, save for the slurping sounds of noodles, which brought a hint of life to the room.
After finishing her noodles, Fu Xiaoyao put the bowl and chopsticks aside. Then she casually picked up a book from Lu Hanzchuan's bookshelf and sat in the soft armchair to read it.
But after a while, she began to yawn continuously, her energy levels clearly dropping.
Lu Hanchuan occasionally looked up at her a few times. Seeing that her face was full of sleepiness, but she was desperately trying to stay awake and not go back to the room, he felt both annoyed and amused.
He didn't tell her to go back to her room, he wanted to see how long she could hold out.
As it turned out, Fu Xiaoyao disappointed Lu Hanchuan. She couldn't last long and succumbed to exhaustion, leaning her head against the armrest of the chair and falling asleep.
Her sleeping position was quite interesting; she curled up entirely on the chair, a tiny ball. She looked adorable but also slightly pitiful.
I don't know if she sleeps comfortably like this!
"Stupid woman, you said you'd help me with work, this is how you help Not professional at all!" Lu Hanchuan muttered under his breath, then got up and walked over. He looked down at Fu Xiaoyao for a while before taking off his coat and draping it over her. Then he scooped her up in his arms and carried her back to the room.
This time, even he himself didn't return to his study.
The next day, Fu Xiaoyao was woken up by a phone call. She opened her eyes and looked at the position of the ringing phone, then reached out and picked it up. Without looking at the caller ID, she put the phone to her ear and said, "Hello, who is this"
Her voice was slurred and thick with drowsiness.
The person on the phone fell silent for a few seconds after hearing this, before slowly speaking, "Xiaoyao, it's me."
"Linlin" Fu Xiaoyao heard the familiar voice and immediately woke up, her eyes opening completely. "What's the matter with calling so early"
"I..." On the phone, Yu Lin said one word before falling silent again.
Fu Xiaoyao waited for a while, but didn't hear her speak. She couldn't help but get anxious and sat up from the bed, "What's wrong Just tell me."
"Xiao Yao, I..." Yu Lin's face was a little strange as she clenched her phone.
Fu Xiaoyao couldn't see anything unusual about her, but she could sense that something was different today. Her expression turned worried, "Did something happen to your aunt and uncle again"
"No, no, just..."
"What do you mean Just say it." Fu Xiaoyao was so anxious that she scratched her head.
Yu Lin bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes filled with struggle and reluctance. But then she looked in one direction, seemingly thinking of something. She took a deep breath, and her gaze became resolute. "Xia Yao, it's been a long time since we last met. How about we meet"
"Huh" Fu Xiaoyao blinked. "It's been a long time But we just saw each other two days ago."
"My, my, it feels like three autumns have passed since we last saw each other." Yu Lin teased.
Fu Xiaoyao felt she had regained her usual optimism, a sigh of relief in her heart. "Since you wanted to see me, why didn't you just say so from the beginning Why beat around the bush and make me think something terrible had happened You scared me!"
Yu Lin's eyes darted nervously, "That... I wasn't really joking. I just wanted to get your attention and see if you cared about me. Okay, I know I was wrong. Will you forgive me"
"Fine, fine, I forgive you. But I might not be able to come see you." Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her sore neck.
Yu Lin was stunned, "Why not"
"Because my father-in-law is unwell and needs to be in a nursing home, I have to go with him. So..."
"Not even one day" Yulin interrupted her, her voice seeming rather urgent.
Fu Xiaoyao was taken aback by her such a big reaction, then frowned, "Linlin, you're so strange today, are you..."
"No, don't overthink it." Yu Lin interrupted her once again, but her tone had returned to normal. "There's nothing strange about me. I just thought we hadn't seen each other in a while and wanted to get together. I didn't expect you wouldn't have time."
"Sorry about that, I'll treat you to a meal when I have time, okay" Fu Xiaoyao smiled apologetically.
Yulin fell silent again, then after a few seconds, she spoke again, "Xiaoyao, I don't think I've ever been to your house before. How about I come play at your place"
"Eh" Fu Xiaoyao was surprised, "Why did you suddenly think of coming to my house"
“Well, mainly I have a gift to give you. I wanted to give it to you outside, but you wouldn't come out to see me, so I had no choice but to send it home. Don't worry, I won't keep you from seeing your grandfather.” Yulin replied.
Fu Xiaoyao thought for a moment, "Well then, I'll ask my husband. Only if he agrees can I let you come over."
"Aren't you the mistress Why are you asking your husband" Yulin asked in confusion. steering wheel, a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.Are Lu Hanzhan and Fu Xiaoyao really destined to be togetherOne lost their memory, yet still fell in love with the other.Even if one hates the oth...
